Tropical Vacation Home in Hawaiian Beaches, Pahoa, HI

It actually did have air conditioning. It was clean and quiet.

Nice quiet location perfect for us.

We very much enjoyed staying at the property, especially using the porch in the mornings to eat our breakfast. Great location as well!

We have been to the Pahoa area before and this house is conveniently located close to town, area shopping and restaurants. The setting is decidedly rainforest which makes for a very relaxed setting. The front porch is nice for sitting outside either during the day or evening. Jerry the owner is very easy to work with and the house is completely as described. I know some reviews have noted sounds from frogs and chickens. We really had no problem with this and it adds to the charm of the area. We would definitely go back on a future trip.

The house is wonderful. We really enjoyed our stay. Jerry is a very good host.

Located in a neighborhood, away from traffic, among the trees, roosters, and frogs. Very pleasant stay, great laundry room, and large enough for four of us to not get on each other.

The cottage is located in a residential area and within a jungle like landscape. The frog noise (sounded like a bird chirping) never bothered us. The house is fully airconditioned, so no windows need to be opened. Everything is as was pictured' and described. Very convenient to a shopping area with a very nice market. Immediate response to our two questions. Property is 35mins from Hilo except during rush hour - it can take an hour. During your stay, make sure you take a drive along the Military Road, a rainforest along a beautiful coastline. Convenient to visit Volcano National park. Parking is covered and on a concrete slab. Neighborhood is pleasant, quiet and family oriented. This place is a Gem.

Perfect in every sense of a comfortable place to rest and relax. Be aware when they say tropical it’s in a rainy area of Hawaii. And that’s a good thing.

We spent the bulk of our stay on the Big Island here. Jerry provided very detailed check in instructions and was very responsive to any questions we had throughout our stay. Place was very clean which is a big deal for me. Internet is strong which kept the teenagers quiet - always a plus. The Roku allowed my wife and I catch up on shows from the 90's when the day was done. The location, house and communication with Jerry was top notch. Can't recommend the place enough. Also, a nice lookout point at the end of the road, a mile or two away. Definitely worth a return now that I know about Kohala Coffee and Malama Market in Pahoa. That said, it was a little farther out than I expected - but that's more on me not translating distance into drive times. Where I live 100 km (60 miles) equals an hour. Not so in Hawaii. That's not a criticism but it does highlight the need to adjust the internal metrics you may have when you think about driveling around the Islands. Traffic to and from Hilo can be a bit of a bear. But then again, that seemed to be anywhere on the island from what we saw.

House was wonderful!!

We stayed three nights while exploring the Volcano National Park, Mauna Kea and the Waterfalls. The house had everything we needed , the beds were comfortable and the outdoor space and the Lanai are absolutely gorgeous!
